Is KDP Miner safe?
KDP Miner sends your Chrome profile identity ID and a persistent user ID to kdpminer.com when scraping starts.
When you start KDP Miner scraping actions such as Keyword Storm, ASIN Storm, Flash, or Start Scraping, the extension posts an action name with your Chrome profile identity ID and stored user ID to KDP Miner telemetry. For first-time identity-linked users, it may also check the Chrome identity ID with KDP Miner before creating or storing the persistent user ID.

What this publisher told the store about itself, and the other listings that told it the same thing.
Shared hosts - 1 hostname
Hostnames hardcoded in this extension that few other listings call. That can mean one operator behind both, and it can equally mean a small shared vendor, so it is context rather than a conclusion. Hosts that many listings call are left out: they are services, not connections.

What it can do
Permissions this extension asks for, as declared in version 2.5.3. Asking for a permission is not a finding on its own - it is what the extension can do if it chooses to.

Where it sends data
